MAKING THE NEWS
:

THE ArtsBank, a new gallery, in Saltburn continues to showcase the best of the region’s artistic talent.

SALTBURN hosted the National Surfing Championship but when top class surfers turned up to compete in a national sporting event they found the sea like a millpond. However they intend to return next year.

COUNCILLOR Sheelagh Clarke, deputy leader of Redcar and Cleveland Council says she would like the village of Skinningrove developed as the borough’s fourth seaside resort in a bid to attract more visitors to it. The issue was raised at a meeting of Redcar and Cleveland Council’s Cabinet recently.

What the estate agent says

ROB GRIMWOOD
owner of Grimwood Estates in Loftus

THERE is a vast array of properties for buyers in TS12 and TS13 from one-bedroom seaside apartments to six-bed executive detached family homes.

And although house prices have fallen, the market has seen positive signs of recovery in the past 12 months.

In TS12 you can get a three-bed semi in Brotton for £120,000. And a six-bed new-build detached home in Skelton costs around £250,000. First-time buyers can get on the property ladder with a two up, two down, terraced property in Brotton for around £70,000.

In TS13 a three-bed semi-detached property in Loftus costs about £130,000. A stone-built detached property in Loftus costs around £170,000. And a terraced home in Carlin How costs £65,000.

TS12 and TS13 have always been popular due to being situated on the stunning North-east coastline as well as having the North Yorkshire Moors on its doorstop.

Both are also close to the historic Whitby as well as Teesside towns.

Properties to let are very much in demand in both postcodes.

On average a one-bedroom apartment in TS12 costs around £500 per month. A three-bed terraced property in Saltburn will cost you about £450 a month.

For £500 a month you can get a three-bed semi in Skelton. And you can get a three-bedroom detached home in Brotton for around £650 a month.

In TS13 a terraced house will cost around £400 a month. Semi-detached properties start from around £500 a month.

And detached homes cost around £650 a month.

I think that the next 12 months will see the market on the mend. I don’t think prices will shoot up but I certainly believe that we will see some improvements over the next 12 months.
